Wall in a Box?

Greetings fellow Parallaxers,
I've got a prototype for a wall switch, which is mountable onto a standard electrical box and would like to demo it in an efficient way. Problem is, I can't walk into someone's office and start wiring the device to his existing wall switch. I thought the perfect solution was a "demo box" which has: A/C cord that connects to an outlet -> electric/junction box to allow for mounting the prototype -> A/C hot in and hot out to "fixture" (next item); A/C outlet (female) allowing connection of any device (which will be simulating the fixture attached to the wall switch).
I was wondering if anyone has come across something like this, in an "off the shelf" format so that I don't have to build one.
Thanks much for any feedback that leads me down the right path. If a different forum is a better place for this, please advise and I will move it there.

I don't think I've seen a ready made unit like this though. It's an easy build.
This would probably have been better posted in the "Sandbox" section
